As far as I know he was running a business, but he had, you know it looked. to me like it was a financed story: it looked as if he had a lot of money to play with, because he was driving a fancy car. There were lots of telephones and chairs around, I was very impressed.

The first time that I really took notice of anything relating to that was when Gene de Kock mentioned it at his trial. And what's interesting to me is this, which I think might throw some light on the issue for you, is that de Kock was a man of action and he worked very closely with Craig in the past, prior to 1990. And people such as myself and Craig strongly advised him that after 1990, the second of February, there was no justification at all for continuing in any way with the so-called struggle, because a political settlement had been dealt, so from our point of view, certainly from my point of view, I cannot speak for Craig but I would imagine so because we have been associated since, we said 'right, the struggle is over, let's get on with our lives, it's a great relief. We battled like hell, we spent twenty-odd years of our lives fighting this war. Let's get on with our lives. Let's make some money. Let's establish ourselves in the private sector if we can, that's what we must look towards.' And that's what we did.
